Berlin to study ICC warrants, no more steps until Israeli visit planned
The German government will carefully examine the International Criminal Court's arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former defence chief, but will not take further steps until a visit to Germany is planned, a spokesperson said. "I find it hard to imagine that we would make arrests on this basis," said German government spokesman Steffen Hebestreit on Friday, pointing out that legal questions had to be clarified regarding the warrant. He did not specify what those questions entailed and did not answer when asked whether Netanyahu would be welcome in Germany.

Residents in several cities and towns across Serbia blocked traffic and stood in silence for 15 minutes on Friday to commemorate the 15 victims of a roof collapse in the country's north three weeks ago.
